what a perversion of what is a good way for companies to join the conversation. how typical that they choose the least appropriate way of contacting people who made negative comments about them. Calling or email them is bound to creep people out. Why not use the same way as other users. @comcastcares didn't have any of these problems, as he was transparently one of the users and an individual behind the username. Another reason to not believe that companies will change in any significant way without some serious shock to their system.

Privacy ain’t dead yet
Last couple of months I have found myself giving several talks on privacy. This isn’t exactly news as I have been banging on that drum for ages, but there does seem to be more interest in privacy and requests to talk about the topic.
This may be because people are realising how elusive privacy becomes as the web platforms are turning the screws on user data they have accumulated. I am looking at you, Facebook, though Facebook is not the only perp in town…
The first talk on the topic, which I enjoyed very much was the one I gave in June to the Oxford Libertarian Society. I tried to cover various notions of privacy and argued that privacy is to identity what freedom is to morality – the latter can’t exist without the former. Here’s the text in full.
Oxford Libertarian Society talk on privacy
My second recent talk on privacy was at LIFT France 2010, as part of the session called Privacy Revisited, Protect and Project with Daniel Kaplan, the founder of FING and Alma Whitten, Google’s Engineering Lead for Privacy. It is a sign of a good session where one learns much from the other speakers. After watching Alma’s interesting presentation, it occurred to me that in the world of web platforms and clouds, even ones that are trying to be benign, privacy boils down to something I should have opened my talk with…
Privacy is never having to delete things you don’t want anyone to see.
